anyway, good luck in Londonistan and elsewhere guys, u need and will need it, assuming the responsabilities of clowns’ foreign politics

Contrary to Paul Starobin’s admitedly excellent article (“the French were right”), Pilotght’s posting and yours don’t really contribute to any re-thinking and reconciliation. If you really want to change British and American foreign politics, you have to stop adding insult to their injury…

The French had to learn their lesson too in Algeria. It would have been just as useless to be sarcastic about it back then. It only would have made them more stubborn.
Of course the “Coalition of the willing” have ridden themselves into a big mess, but to better it we have to stop rubbing their noses into it, pull up our sleeves and offer our assistance in Iraq nation building.
The muslim world somehow has to see an alternative picture of western nations again, soon. Else we really might end up in a full-blown clash of cultures.

That statement coming from an Indian made it sort of sound like a peace- pipe offer to Chinese and Pakistani. (It seemed at least that he could sort of smile about the past). Good thing you erased your posting. There’s truly enough flaming going on here it seems… If you’d like, I’ll erase mine, too, so there won’t be anything left of this 😉

Never put Chinese and Indian in the same sentence. We’ve nothing to do with Indians.

Well, this statement of rather strong emotions against an other nationality sort of supports the opposite… Or was that intended irony?
